NSAiswatchingus Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 THE TOWN OF HAMTON Come join this quiet little town of store fronts and fun on PS4. New player friendly, and open to the public. I'd like to get some kind of PvP tournament going to celebrate the grand opening. Let me know what you think!

Zchu Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Wow that is amazing! How did you build so much on PS4 and not get lag? Me and my crew can't build 1/4 of this without the game becoming unplayable from lag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSAiswatchingus Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 Well first, make sure everyone in your crew has a good enough connection to at least maintain in the yellow. I routinely have to kick/ban people with poor connections. Second, I lost my previous 1000+ day world to having to much stuff and crashing the server. So this time, I accounted for that in the world's design. All areas, but the main central area and two other biomes have been stripped of everything in it. No trees, no turf, nothing. These vast areas of nothing are referred to as "The Great Wastes" in my world. I don't know how much this actually works but it seems to be keeping the world playable. It also helps that I have Google Fiber. *ALSO* back up your save data from the console onto a flash drive AND onto the playstation network with the online storage feature.

I only play with my best friend and we have a good connection. We will try the Great Waste area. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogueagent01 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Yeah i've been over a 1,000 a few times and noticed two key things that have kept lag at bay; 1. Spread your base out, and keep as many things as possible in chests 2. Clean your world, this one seems to have the most impact. Every so often walk your world and pick up all the lose stuff off the ground i.e rot, twigs, manure, guano, seeds, flint, meteor areas it really does have a significant impact(at least in my experience) My one server i have stopped using is around day 3,200 and out of nowhere became super laggy, i'm not sure what changed, but it is almost unplayable now, so i started a new one. By the way after looking at some of the images i must say that your world is quite impressive, really nice job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSAiswatchingus Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 Yeah I'm about due for another clean up. It's unfortunate that the most dangerous thing in this game is a server crash. Hopefully Klei can improve performance on console sometime in the near future. I'm glad you like the set up! Feel free to join if you send me on. I've usually got a lobby full of noobs and screaming kids but I'd love to get a more serious group together to take down some end game bosses.

Thats kind of what I'm going for with this world. The stuff in the town is based off the classic fantasy town in games, movies, books, etc. You've got the Blacksmith, the Inn, the Tavern, the magic shop, general store, tailor, guards, townsfolk, and quests. You should join up sometime NorthicaN. I think you'd have some good creative inputs. I'm on vacation for 9 days after tomorrow. I plan on being on as much as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydMarch Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I have also had some issues with lagging servers. The best solution I have come up with is to keep bases smaller and spread out. I try and constrain layouts to 16x16 tiles, and separated by at least 1 biome. Here is a capture of a base 1600 days in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SydMarch Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 6 all together, but not generally more than 4 at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always limit the world to 4 as well unless we're doing something special. It seems like the lag is bad no matter how much stuff you have if 6 people are playing.
